The Liverpool legend is currently playing for LA Galaxy in the MLS but his contract expires in November.

And Gerrard is reportedly keen to make a return to England either as a player or to continue his coaching badges.

Gerrard told the Mirror: “I’m wondering whether I should play on for a little bit longer or whether I should call it a day. I haven’t 100 per cent decided on that yet.

“I still enjoy playing. I still love coming into training, I still love competing, so if I can carry on and there are opportunities to stay here or go somewhere else for another six months or 12 months then I’ll consider it.

“But if nothing comes up I’ll try and fly through the coaching badges and see what happens down that road.”

Gerrard’s hint will have alerted a number of clubs who could see him as an ideal candidate to be a player-manager as he enters the twilight of his career.

DECISION TIME: Steven Gerrard could return to England at the end of his MLS contract

He added: “I’m around 60 percent through my A licence and I’m hoping to have that finished by the end of the year so we’ll go from there.

“Maybe it’s an obsession but I still love playing. I’m going to be a long time retired and so I still want to enjoy things while I’m still feeling good.”

Gerrard left Liverpool in the summer of 2015 and his family now split their time between Merseyside and California.
